Settlement Planning
When a person suffers an injury there are numerous issues to deal with beyond the injury case itself. For many injured claimants, public benefits and supports such as: Social Security Income (SSI), healthcare assistance, personal care services, therapies, and in-home assistance will be an ongoing part of life. These benefits can be lost, depending on how a settlement is received. Strategies such as spend-down planning, gift planning, annuity and settlement structures can keep benefits and save money.
